As many of you have mentioned, the forums are down. We do not know when they will be back. When we know something, we’ll let you know, or maybe you’ll find out when we do and they are back up.
In the meantime, EWO has been updated with some lovely fan art. Go check it out.

Hope the forums are up again soon.
What's going on? The emma-watson.net youtube account is also suspended.
Yeah : This account is suspended. Why ??
what is happening? 🙁
The forum's server was clogged up(either by many people who were around because of Ballet Shoes or by random machines) either way it had to be closed down. Hopefully before the day is over they will have been repaired. Last time they were down it wasn't more than a day. Hopefully that is the case here. And the account is suspended due to BBC's wrath because EW.net posted Ballet Shoes(which was taken down, so if you want to see it now you might want to order the DVD).:sad: But I also heard the bad sites account was also suspended 😆
Gorgeous fan art!
nooo – come back forums!
Thanks for the update. 🙂 see? I told you they'd have it under control if everyone went out for a breath of fresh air and calmed down. Everything's going to be okay. 🙂
I love all the fanarts, and just so you'd know: the first one is mine 😉 Hope the forums will be up again soon.
Hi guys, man I'm glad to talk to you all again, I understand the forums have had some trouble, but why? What is going on with the forums? Why are they suspended?
i love you for ever beutiful for ever what is happenig?
The forums will be back up as soon as possible. As many of you probably know we've been experiencing attacks over the last couple of days, and so our host has taken the forums offline to prevent them damaging the forums. They were also planning to install some upgrades to the server to try and reduce the load. I'll let you know more when I know more. –syhr
thanks syrh. much appreciated. 🙂 we'll just have to be patient folks!
nicee! 😛 all of them are lovely!
they all did an amazing job especially Krystyna and Hugo! 😆 wow i hope i could draw like that!
yeah thanks syhr 🙂
Thanks Syhr!
I don't understand what kind of attacks this are and I'm totally EAGER to know what they are about. 🙁
I hope they're back online by tomorrow. Really hope so. 😥
KS987,Do not talk about things you know nothing about. We did not post Ballet Shoes to youtube, or links to where it can be downloaded. We posted the commercial and a trailer for Ballet Shoes. BBC was within their right to complain. Youtube’s response to such complaints is delete the account, rather than just remove the material. But do not say we posted Ballet Shoes. And the forum problems have nothing to do with fans.Olie,Perhaps other forums aren’t such a popular target for people to try taking down.
Whoops. I merely heard that from the other comments section. Ok, so BBC just had a problem with the commercial and trailer being shown by you guys. Alright, next time people ask, I will be more specific and get the correct info first. Although I did say that it was either people or machines who clogged up the server, so technically I did not say it was officially fans who were the cause. From what I am hearing, it sounds more sinister than that, and I bet it was one of the bad sites plots.
nice fan art…
KS987 – it was probably random. Mugglenet got attacked too. [btw, this is Kate from the forums, and I didn't post the above message of, "Nice fan art"]
hi Kate! missed you today. *huggles* (it's Ingrid)
so someones using coordinated attacks eh, that sucks. I wish people would just grow up ya know.
I agree. "LOL I shut down a site and ruined everything for everybody".
No the forums are the good thing about this site.
And now it is my birthday. And this happens. 🙁
Too true, hackers make me mad. 😥
Anyway, great fan art. I hope Emma enjoyed her vacation.
And what happened with the Christmas favorites that were to be posted? Probably because the forums were acting being a huge enough distraction.
i know it's strange. first both the site and forum werent working the the site came back. then after about an hours the forum came back then after 20 mins it disapearred again. for those who read my story- sorry love daddy. i'll be posting it on ff.net tonight
Happy Birthday KS987.
Thanks for the update, syhr!
Hackers are just part of the internet I guess, we must learn to accept them…. you guys must watch out for the site though, please, dook, syhr, careful with the site.
i hate hackers! ugh i miss the forums 😥 alex illnever accept hackers they ruin sites that people enjoy 😛 hackers attacked mugglenet a few days back. Btw thanks for the update on the forums syhr. happy birthday KS987
I really do understand you, but our hate for them is not going to stop them unfortunatly. Lets hope the forums get back up soon. 😉
Yeah I wish the forums will be back soon..!!
I hope the forums are up again soon ,too please make it faster 😉
top 25 imdb!! http://www.imdb.com/features/rto/2008/starmeter
Really nice drawings…I love them!! 😆 some people are just sooo talented at art…unlike myself. Heres the thing about internet hacking though…almost anyone can do it nowadays. If you play any games online, you will realize that about 20% of the people can put over 100 hits per minute on a site like this. Doing so will make this site virtually unaccessable by anyone else. Its not something you can prevent…unfortunately 🙁
Yay! At least now we can see the page put up instead of forums, I used to get the ICQ, no such thing as emmawatson.net/forums page.
Thanks guys. 🙂
Take it easy people, If we have to wait just over 11 months till the premiere, we can wait a day to two while they upgrade the site. 😉
I wish the hackers would have attacked the bad sites instead.
John I agree, but luckily better defence systems for sites are being developed every day so the hacker's affition will never be easy. 😉 Come on guys, lets have some patience and give the mods the time they need, patience always has good rewards. 😉 Cheers guys, nice talking to you all again. 🙂
i know what your saying alex, hackers are like murderes, they will never disapear *note* im not actually comparing the two types of people, lol ooooh forums say "upgrading" im excited 😆 🙂
Woot upgrading, dax like very much 😆 =D
Kenne, are u talking about HBP Premiere?
lol – it's saturday night and all i want to do is go on the forums…. 😆 hope they're up soon – good luck to the guys working on them 🙂
